Student Employment Hours

All student employees are limited to working 20 hours per week during the Fall and Spring semesters. A work week is considered to be Sunday-Saturday. Student employees should not work or record on their time sheet more than 20 hours in a work week.

This is particularly important for international student employees to be aware of. If an international student works over 20 hours in a work week, there may be severe consequences which include losing visa status.

International students should connect with ISSO for any and all directives related to activities that may impact their visa status. More information can be found on the ISSO website.


CPT and Student Employment

The following statements apply to all F-1 visa students:

  • Students cannot hold both an on-campus job and a Curricular Practical Training (CPT) internship at the same time.
  • Students are limited to one experience (i.e. CPT internship, student employment job, etc.) at a time, and one experience per semester.
  • If an F-1 student is working on-campus and wants to pursue a CPT position, they must end their current student employment position.
  • Students must receive CPT authorization before starting their CPT internship.

Please see the ISSO website and contact ISSO for more information regarding CPT.
